Vis Jewelry
Vis Jewelry at 404 E. Main has been operated by Harmon Vis since May 1956. Before moving to the present site, "Pokey" Vis was located at 422 E. Main. Previous to December 2, 1951 operating his own store, Mr. Vis was employed by M. C. Gysbers, Inc. for approximately five years and one year with Axel Peterson.
The new location was much larger than the old and so silverware, china and crystal were added to the stock. Later, luggage was also added.
The store remains in the same location today.Acquisition
